About: Meet Your Pet Sitters – Dave & Sylvia 🐾 Hi there! I'm Dave, and together with my wife Sylvia, we offer a loving, safe, and fun home-away-from-home for your fur babies. Our story actually began with our shared love for dogs—so when we say we treat every pup like family, we mean it from the heart. I've been boarding dogs for years and have had the joy of caring for pups of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. After a short break, I'm back and ready to open our home again to your beloved pets! Whether it's a weekend stay or a longer visit, you can trust that your dog will be cared for like one of our own—with lots of love, playtime, cuddles, and updates for you, too. Our home is calm, dog-friendly, and filled with positive energy (and a few extra treats). We know how important it is to have peace of mind when you're away, and that's exactly what we aim to give you—with every tail wag and happy snooze. Let us be your dog's second family. We can't wait to welcome them in! 🐶❤️ My schedule is usually pretty flexible. I work remote from home and if I do need to leave.I have help from my mother and step dad. your dog's safety and well-being are our top priority. Our trusted, experienced caregivers provide a secure and loving environment, ensuring peace of mind while you're away."

About: Not only am I an animal lover, I have been a dog trainer for the last 18 years and a Pet First Aid & CPR instructor since earlier this year. I have worked with all kinds of animals and am familiar with a large range of behaviors. I also volunteered at different shelters for over 8 years. You can trust me with your pet. I am currently a professional dog trainer with availability for pet care throughout the week. I can be flexible for mornings, evenings and weekends, working around my training schedule. In clients homes I follow the guidelines provided by the pet owner. We discuss any clarifications before the job begins ensuring we have a mutual understanding on what is needed.
“After booking with Morgan , I can attest to the other 5 star reviews on her profile . She is responsible and very considerate . We will be looking forward to booking her again .”

About: I’ve been house and dog sitting since I myself was a kid, and I’ve cared for a multitude of dogs, kids, and houses. I began watching my cousins, my cousins dogs, their house, etc. and as time went on I eventually cared for my neighbors dogs and house(s), neighbors friend’s dogs, as well as people I’ve been recommended to. I’ve had the pleasure of caring for older dogs, as well as dogs with strict dietary restrictions and medications too :) I am currently searching for full-time work and need to be available for interviews, but I am eager and willing to communicate and work around any prior commitments that could interfere with the care of your pets or home :) Anytime I’m in someone else’s home, I treat it with the most respect possible and ensure that I leave the house as tidy as it was when I arrived. As for children and pets, I’m very observational and empathetic, so I do whatever I can to keep everyone in my care as happy and healthy as possible. I generally try to know where the nearest animal hospital/veterinarian as well as emergency centers are for every area I’m in, because I also like to be overly cautious.
About: # Pet Care Experience Hello! I recently moved to America and I'm thrilled to share my love for animals with your furry family members. With over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for cats, I've had the joy of raising two beautiful Burmese cats and watching several generations of their kittens grow from tiny bundles with closed eyes into magnificent little "lions and panthers." While I have a special connection with cats and understand their behavior intuitively, I also have experience caring for small dogs and genuinely love all animals. I'm comfortable with all aspects of routine daily care and always prioritize your pet's wellbeing and safety. ## Why I'm the Right Choice for Your Pet Flexible Schedule & Full Attention: I work remotely from home, which gives me the flexibility to be available for your pet throughout the day - whether they need walks, playtime, meals, or just companionship. I can easily adapt my schedule around your pet's established routine, ensuring they feel comfortable and secure while maintaining their normal daily rhythm. Missing My Furry Friends: Currently living without pets of my own, I genuinely miss that special bond with animals. Pet sitting allows me to shower love and attention on your beloved companions while providing them the comfort and security they deserve. For me, caring for your pet isn't just a job - it's therapy and joy rolled into one. Safe, Pet-Friendly Environment: I live in a pet-friendly apartment complex with secure, enclosed grounds where your pet can feel safe and comfortable. ## Services I Provide - Overnight sitting in your home (24-hour care) - Pet boarding in my home - Drop-in visits and house calls - Daytime dog care at my place - Dog walking services I can handle basic care needs including medication administration and monitoring your pet's eating, sleeping, and bathroom habits.

About: I have a heart full of love for DOGS and CATS alike. My pomeranian died two years ago and she wasn't just my dog, she was one of the family. She went everywhere with me. When your dog comes to our home, they will be treated like one of the family. When I have to get my daughter from school, there is a good possiblity, your dog will get to go for a car ride too. Just like they were my kid!! Daily walks are a must too. That is unless they just don't want to that day. I am flexible. We have playtime too.

I understand the importance of trusting someone to care for your "kids".

“Natalie was great! Our boy has epilepsy and we felt very comfortable leaving him with her. She was responsive, easy to communicate with and professional. Bogey also gives her a 5 out of 5!”

About: Over the last few years I helped my roommate take care of her border collie, Aspen. I would take him on longer walks around Miners Ravine or take him to a nearby park to throw a frisbee for him. I also dog sit for my Grandmother’s Australian shepherd, Remy, pretty often. They are both very high energy so I know what it takes to tire them out! I cared for my disabled dog for approximately 3 years, which entailed changing diapers, cleaning up many messes, and lots of patience. I also took him on daily stroller walks and I am willing to do the same if your pets have a disability! I work about 30 hours a week but most of my shifts are in the afternoon. I have Sundays completely available but any other day will depend on my schedule at work! I am rapidly responsive and flexible on any of the days of the week! I do not have in home care available but I am very capable of visiting your home. I am very responsible and respectful of others homes. Your home will remain exactly how you left it!!

There are not enough words to describe how great Alyssa and Kyle are. They went above and beyond for our dogs. They are so knowledgeable and kind. They had wonderful communication and they are easy to work with. We would give them 10 stars if we could! Truly an amazing experience and amazing individuals!

Nadiia was great! We loved her in our greet and meet. She took the time to get to know our doggies. Took them for a short walk. She did a great job at communicating with us when she came to check on our doggies. Very happy with her and will definitely use her again. Thank you Nadiia.

Our regular Rover person was ready booked so I contacted Anna just a few days before we needed drop ins for our kitty and she stepped up and took great care of our fur-baby. Lots of great pictures on Rover cards came through from her visits to let us know our Roady was in great hands.
Ashley was so great! Very communicative, left detailed notes, and followed directions perfectly. She went above and beyond and made me feel really comfortable leaving my dog in her care. I’ll definitely be rebooking with her the next time I need services from Rover!

Nancy (Annie) was AMAZING! Truly made our trip enjoyable in that we didn’t have to worry about our three older pups. She understood their special needs, communicated frequent photo and video updates, and was very thoughtful with our babies and our space. I’d feel lucky if she were available to care for our dogs when we travel next.

We had the pleasure of having Kendra do drop in visits for our cat, who requires multiple medications, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! She went above and beyond in ensuring our cat’s needs were met, was incredibly responsive, and followed all the instructions to a T. It gave us peace of mind knowing our cat was in such good hands. We’ll definitely be booking with her again in the future!

YES - you want to use Bekah!!! She took time away from her family and friends to take care of our dog on Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and New Years holidays!!! Excellent communication skills and incredibly kind. She did an excellent job taking care of our mini schnauzer. We had her do in-home visits twice a day while were gone for two weeks. She gives prompt responses and check-ins with pictures so we know what’s happening at home. We didn’t have to worry one bit about our dog! 100% recommendation especially if you are considering an extended trip.

Levi was absolutely wonderful to work with! So kind, friendly, and easygoing—we felt completely comfortable leaving all our pets in Levi’s care. Communication was great throughout, and the photo updates of our pet family while we were traveling were such a thoughtful touch. Two thumbs up for Levi, who truly does an outstanding job. Highly recommend!
